The 'DNA' four-piece say it's "really strange" how committed some of their fans are to the band.
Little Mix have joked that they are starting to feel like Justin Bieber because of how devoted their female fan base is.
The 'Wings' singers say they were really excited to see how committed their fans are after launching their first tour across the UK this month.
"It's mostly teenage girls at our shows so I do feel like I'm justin Bieber," Little Mix star Jesy Nelson revealed to the Daily Star this week. "It's really strange.
"We were hoping it might happen but realistically girl bands never really have that kind of following, you know, people banging on car windows.
Fellow band member Perrie Edwards admits the girls were surprised at how committed their fan base is and says all four girls have been moved to tears at times.
"There are girls everywhere and the best thing is they know all the words, all the raps," she explained. "We get so emotional hearing them on stage we just cry."
The 'DNA' four-piece also opened up on their ambitions to crack America later this year.
"We will be going there and working our bums off," Perrie posted, while Jade Thirlwall added: "Wings was written with the US in mind. We have an album that will travel well. We have big ambitions."
